The Retreat is a wellness and fitness services organization based in Wayzata, Minnesota, that operates a residential recovery program rooted in the Twelve Step framework of Alcoholics Anonymous. Its approach centers on providing a non-clinical, mutual-help environment that offers education and support to individuals and families affected by alcohol and drug dependency, with the aim of facilitating a sustainable life in sobriety. Located in Wayzata, the organization emphasizes a dignified, safe setting, access to accurate information about the problem and solution, and a bridge to Alcoholics Anonymous as part of its recovery continuum. By delivering affordable educational services within a residential context, The Retreat serves people seeking time out from dependency and support to study and practice recovery principles. The program positions itself within the broader wellness and recovery services sector, addressing needs in Minnesota beyond local neighborhoods by offering scholarships and community-oriented support as part of its mission. Recent developments include recognition for customer experience and a grant in prior years that supported access for residents of greater Minnesota, reflecting its focus on expanding reach within the region.
